The talk to your copier prank is working AWESOMELY.

I put it on the seven Xerox machines (I made a Xerox version) and people are standing at the machines yelling commands over and over! Pretty sure everyone knows by now, but this morning it was HILARITY AT IT'S FINEST! (Sadly, no video)

My cube-mate and I decided to add a little twist to it after posting the copier upgrade notice.

I printed out a pdf, then emailed it to my co-conspirator. Then I walked up to the copier and verbally commanded it make two copies while my co-conspirator re-sent the print job. Nearby cubicle dwellers were convinced enough that they tried it out immediately and were puzzled when the copier ignored their directives.

We told them that maybe they needed to submit a help desk ticket to have the linguistics module enabled for their voiceprint. Still waiting to see how that part turns out.

My coworkers ignored the "upgrade" as it was obviously a prank(we are all software developers). So I made one of the others print one when I was going to say the command "print somedocumentname". Co-workers looking a bit spooked Then that co-worker did the same while I pushed the print button from my PC. We both returned to working without giving a slight hint of our enjoyment of this prank.

The WTF-ness was hilarious, as they couldn't decide wether to check the feature out or if this was a prank.

Then one of the guys stood up and was like "WTF I'm so fucking curious, now I have to check it out".

I remember my first Goatse. It was about 2003 and I was working a job that had almost the entire internet blocked. One site that I frequented was open, letssingit.com so I spent most of my time there. I decided that the Johnny Cash Lyrics were poor on the site so I was spending a good chunk of time uploading Cash lyrics for every song I had. Up popped a message from what looked like an Admin so I opened it. GOATSE! I was shocked, grossed out then moved on. The next day underlings were banned from internet usage.
